If you don't want to do a bsearch() (C runtime function) then create a FOR
loop

 For I = 1 to %ELEM(Sprop_Rec)
  If Sspstat = ' '
  Leave
 Endfor
 **   I now equal the first blank occurrence.

Subject: MODS?? Help.

Ok, Tuesday feels like Monday now.  Trying to find the first occurrence in 

a MODS that is not filled up?  (Hope that makes sense) and then load it 
with my information.  I tried using %LOOKUP on the first field name, but 
it's not an array so that's wrong.  Here's my MODS:
     ?* Affected Streets Data Structure Array
     d Sprop_Rec       Ds           136    Occurs(999)
     d  Sspstat                       1    Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Sspstr#                       4  0 Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Ssploc                       30    Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Sspstak                       4  0 Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Ssploct                      30    Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Ssplds1                      30    Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)
     d  Ssplds2                      30    Overlay(Sprop_Rec:*Next)

Now let's say there are a couple of occurences filled with info I want, 
how do I find the first blank occurrence?  I know if it were an array 
field I could do
Eval      z = %LookUp(' ':MyArray:1) and that would give me the first 
blank index.  Thanks,
